>work the same job for 5 years
>just do my shit properly and show up on time
>apparently I've become the most experienced worker in my department
>people look to me for answers and guidance
I've already gotten a raise, and it's not like I have any more responsibility than I had in the beginning.
Are normies really that incompetent that a robot just doing what's expected makes him rise above them? There's a lot of people who've been in the department as long as me, but again they all look to me.
what's your job? asjjd
>Are normies really that incompetent that a robot just doing what's expected makes him rise above them?
Yes, at least in the lower paid Jobs. I've been working at Aldi die the 4 past years and I've just showed up, didn't cause any Trouble and die my work in a timely manner. Now I've got a Job offer to manage my own Store and I can even list demands.
Yes normal people are that easy to surpass, now imagine what would happen if you actually applied yourself.
I think you're just an average competent person that stuck out your existence and proved yourself competent.
Now if you want a real raise, and you're not super into your current job, start looking for to make a horizontal jump - same job, new company, better pay. Or are you too comfy at this job?
What's your job, brother?
It's easy to surpass normans, they're fucking retarded by default.
I'm a hotel receptionist.
It's kinda fun, actually. The two other people who know as much as me are kinda robots too; fat chain-smoking gamer night auditors and pothead gamer daytime receptionist.
>same job, new company, better pay
Already did this when the chain changed owners. Went from a 3 star hotel to a super relaxed 4 star one.
>do the same job for years
>do high quality work
>put in the extra touch to make things nice
>good relationship with clients (rare because they usually hate everyone at my company)
>management hates me and co-workers blame me for everything including things I have no involvement in
The extra insult was that I was the lead (sole) programmer on the project that got Project of the Year. Normally one person of each department gets an award for it, but the award for the programming went to a guy that worked on it for about four hours. For comparison I spent roughly 600 hours on it.
yeah, many of them bought into that ''be whatever you want, do whatever you want'' so they fuck around their entire lives trying to convince others their life is awesome instead of realizing its bullshit their normie retard parents and teachers told them trying to convince themselves more than their kids.
fuck what they say. company loyalty pays off as long as there are proper work laws and the company doesn't fuck around.
its a win if you're not seriously considering driving straight into a truck on your way to work.
You need to step up to them and speak against their bullshit.
If they threaten to fire you, point at your portfolio and tell them you can easily get a better job anywhere else.
I worked at EA as a game tester for some years. I had days where I literally played world of warcraft for 8 hours instead of doing my job, and my boss would pat me on the back and say thanks for the good work.
In some fields, doing NOTHING puts you above your peers, because they fuck up so spectacularly.
In another job there was a metric of finding 5 bugs per day. That was it. I was hitting 12 bugs per day in my first month, and my team lead actually told me to slow down because it was making the team look bad.
In answer to your question, yes. Most people are fuck ups who do fucking nothing. Showing up on time and doing your job puts you way ahead of normies.
I did once after I caught my boss snooping through to my projects to find something to complain about. I guess he couldn't because he changed some of my code around in a way he thought couldn't be traced. I called him an asshole and got fired for it a few days later. Joke's on them because I was keeping their biggest customer on our side.
That actually explains a lot about EA games
What utter fucking cunts. Get a new job, user. Or go freelance.
I worked on some stinkers, so let me tell you how it goes:
They build a game. Call it SuperGame. All new devs, all new code. Great. You've got a dozen testers on it writing bugs. Bugs are ranked A through D; D is little graphical things, A breaks the game.
At the start of the process, the dev team fixes all the bugs. But the closer you get to release, the less important D bugs become; they focus on A B and C. Then C becomes unimportant. Then B. Finally they'll only fix bugs that crash the game. At the end of the project, everything in the bug database is marked 'known shippable' and the game ships.
So the game launches and does well. They line up a sequel.
What do they do for SuperGame 2? They re-use the old code of course; it's got all your assets and whatnot. It's also got all your old bugs. They build SuperGame 2 on top of SuperGame 1, and get new testers to work on it.
So you're testing SuperGame 2, and you find a bug. Before you report it, you have to check the old bug database. If it's there, you ignore it. Why? Because if it was unimportant enough that the old dev team decided to ship the game with it, you can ignore it now. SuperGame 2 gets released, and has all the bugs from SuperGame 1 AND SuperGame 2.
Repeat this three or four times and you end up with a game that's absolutely riddled with so many stupid, low level bugs that it's a joke to play, but that the dev team keeps saying aren'timportant. The game gets panned, the studio gets fired (they hire the devs back later; this is just a stunt for the investors) and when they make SuperGame 5 they use new code and start the cycle over.
In short, don't buy EA games.
Tits for reading.
is night audit worth it OP? currently considering it
>hire a bunch of assholes
>pay no attention to quality of work
>stay in the normie social circlejerk and talk about the game last night instead of making money
companies like that deserves to go bankrupt and the owners should be put on ''no business loan list''
its like plane economics. it doesn't have to be pleasant as long as you're making money.
there are people out there, who play games very seriously, who actually buys broken EA games. then they complain about it as if its going to change shit.
they serve shit and they know it but they're still making billions.
to be honest its not their fault. its the people who actually buys the games. only a global embargo would teach them this shit isn't acceptable.
>receptionisrt
How do you manage to communicate with so much random normans? I'd blow my fucking brains out
It's the best robot job in existence. You do 2 hours of work, then dick around the rest of the night. One of our night auditors paint Warhammer on his shift.
They're mostly nice, and you learn how do deal with it.
Also, fuck captcha
It's like normies expect a business to just generate month without any work put into it.
>a robot just doing what's expected makes him rise above them
That's pretty much every job.
How much do receptionists get paid?
Maybe you're just really good at the job and you don't even know it.
>tfw worked in retail for 10 years but had Z E R O aspirations to climb the company ladder
And now I'm NEET lol
I don't think I could have kept my sanity as a manager though, I would regularly get pissed as fuck at all kinds of stuff just as a lowly stockboy.
Nah, it's just that he's not a normie who spends all his time at work socializing.
Robots tend to work while at work.
Depends on the country. I get paid $21 an hour.
normies are retarded
from the limited job experience i've had most of what they do is chat with each other about their weekends and weather and families and whatnot.
if you are a robot and don't talk to anyone, show up on time and actually do your job you easily surpass the average norman by a lot
